Excellent work! I appreciated all the updates. Heads up, Eden Prairie Fireworks were rescheduled for Aug. 22.
Thank you, Laura. I’m added as many makeup dates as I can find our our Family Fun Calendar
Stillwater — The city postponed its Fourth of July fireworks display and festivities due to flooding in Lowell Park, according to the city website. Downtown Stillwater is still open for business. City officials have not released an updated date as of Tuesday.
Valleyfair — The amusement park will be open July 4, but the traditional fireworks will not make an appearance. Three rides and the parking lot are closed due to flooding, though the remainder of the park is still open.
Thank you, Ava. Other cities are cancelling or rescheduling due to weather, as well. As always, we recommend checking ahead before heading out.
